I’ll miss summer in the city
The people in the park
The green and lovely plant life
The warm air after dark
The air conditioned buildings
The fairs on blocked off streets
The melons and the ice cream
Hot nights on thinnest sheets
Unhurried walks on weekends
Avoiding sleeping bums
The roaches on the sidewalk
And rancid garbage trucks
The oppressive, steamy weather
Jaywalking toward the shade
But I’ll be here
Throughout the year
Where the grandest dreams are made
